Right...because the U.S. does no good in the world...we contribute nothing to other countries in terms of exporting food, goods, and help...any environmental strain that our richest members are exerting just completely cancels out anything that is good about America...and the environmental strain that some Middle Eastern countries are putting on the world by drilling oil is A-OK...

Your arguments are totally biased and subjective. It's a tragedy that you think you're being so logical. And of course, a 9/11 tribute thread is absolutely the place to start making your statements about how you wish Americans would die. This site is run by Americans. Why are you here?

im just going to have to accept the fact that you will not see my point in this matter, so i dont really see any point of continuing this

not going to happen until its too late, thats just the way people roll.

well, then everyone dies so the problem is taken care of... and that's not going to occur in my lifetime

im going to stop now unless i see someone making some really good points or arguments(from people who actually get my point of view) that i can actually take seriously

so "I'm taking my toys and going home because nobody wants to play my game?" from someone who's so obviously logical that's an interesting statement *strokes imaginary beard*

Under the Non-American casualties section. There's a chart on the page of victims by country.

Aside from the approximately 2,669 United States casualties, 372 foreign nationals (excluding the nineteen perpetrators) also perished in the attacks, i.e. just over 10% of the total number of deaths. The following is a list of their nationalities (not accounting for at least some cases of dual-citizenship). By far the foreign country with the largest loss of life was the United Kingdom, with 67 deaths (including the overseas territory of Bermuda). India had 41, South Korea had 28 and Canada and Japan had 24 each. Colombia had seventeen and Jamaica, Mexico and the Philippines had sixteen each. Australia and Germany had eleven each, while Italy had ten.

Just so people don't forget. Yes, the majority of victims were American. Yes, the attacks happened on American soil. Just don't forget this wasn't strictly a tragedy just for America.

The irony is that I do see the basis of your point, I am VERY liberal, but the fact that you're making this about ALL American lives being worth more dead than people from Iraq being dead makes your valid points become ridiculous. Your bizarre generalizations about America (here's a hint: those supposedly "average" people who you see on television or movies from the U.S. are actually upper-middle class to wealthy. The majority of us don't live that way, not even close) and the fact that you think because we disagree with what you're saying at all means that we don't care about the environment or resources or war or Muslims, or we don't comprehend the gravity of other deaths world wide, makes your standpoint exaggerated and hyperbolic...not to mention vaguely genocidal.

I think I see your point and I agree. The problem with values is that if we try to make it more consistent, people get offended. Must the listeners adapt or must the speaker change his form of language?
